Have you ever walked past the gorgeous stucco fronted houses around London and wished you could just ring the doorbell and ask to have a quick snoop inside? I certainly have! So when I was approached by Anna Daccache to feature this Regent’s Park property on the blog, I jumped at the chance. Anna runs atelierada.com, a home-staging business, where she gets the chance to furnish and style the most incredible homes in the most prestigious postcodes in London (only slightly envious!)

The impressive frontage of the house.

Set right opposite Regent’s Park on a gorgeous London street with black iron railings and traditional lamp posts, this five bedroom house measures in at more than 3700 sq ft. – three reception rooms, a master bedroom with a dressing room and en-suite bathroom, three more bathrooms and ‘vaults’ (naturally!), which are currently being used as wine cellars, as well as access to exclusive resident-only private gardens.

The property is set on a grand street, with Regent's park just a few steps away.

Anna has chosen classic furniture and accessories for the dining room.

The rugs and artwork add a modern twist to the space.

Once a contract is signed, Anna has to have the property staged in 3 to 5 days, so she had quite the job on her hands to make this huge property look homely and attractive in such a short time. Considering the potential tenant, location and era of the property, she decided to go with classic pieces of furniture and sophisticated accessories, but styled with modern art and rugs.

Carefully placed and chosen furniture give potential tenants or buyers a much better idea of how a room can be used.

Viewing a large property can be quite daunting, the many rooms can be overwhelming and this is where staging comes in, it gives life to an empty house and inspires the future occupants with ideas on how to best use and furnish the various rooms.

The artwork provides a bold neon statement in the study.

Anna also has her own warehouse of high-end furniture and accessories, from modern to classic, that she picks and chooses pieces from for each of her projects. But she also has a network of suppliers and artists she collaborates with – I love how she also takes the opportunity work closely with artists and makers to showcase their work in her projects, including the artist who created the modern pop art in this property.

Another project of Anna’s is this stunning detached house in St. John’s Wood, north London. Anna says “The external facade has Gothic features, like pointed arches etc., and is not that polished. This is also the case inside, so I responded to that with the staging.”

With thanks to Anna for allowing me access to finally have a peek inside some of London's grand homes!

An eternal city girl, I’m a big believer that Modern design brings ease and simplicity to our lives. But Modern doesn’t have to mean boring.

I want to show you how you can use Modern Style as a base and mix it up with your own taste to create your very own take on it.

I’ve completed some major property renovations over the years, but this year I start my most challenging project yet - building my own house in North London. Follow me as I blog about every stage of building and designing a home from scratch.

And in between, I'll be blogging about London living and Modern interiors.
